Northrop, MTS, and Conemaugh all have contributed money to Mr. Murtha's campaigns, either through individual contributions or political action committees. Both MTS and Conemaugh have hired the Washington lobbying firm PMA Group, which has given $107,500 to Mr. Murtha since 1989, making it the lawmaker's sixth largest contributor, according to opensecrets.org.That's an excerpt from an article in the Pittsburg Post-Gazette from 2007. Murtha has received hundreds of thousands in contributions from defense contractors.
Defense firms like Murtha's district
